They are slow and uncomfortable here, so everyone drives:). Lovely haul, and I will be waiting to see the final reveal of the MOB dress. Vis-a-vis your comment about moving yourself - yes, it is scary, so much to think about - including the pragmatics of what happens as you become more vulnerable and dependant. Horrible thought, I know - so I always make sure to enjoy the now ( even with the current limitations).

Not sure which I'll use first! I had a bit of difficulty getting to follow your blog - I might have done it twice!

I didn't get around everyone, regrettably. Never mind - next time! Any of the Spoolettes are welcome here any time! I rather regretted the big holdall - I didn't have one of the 'right' size and maybe taking smaller would have meant I bought less - but I had taken stuff down for the swap, too. You said to bring a large wheeled suitcase, do you remember?!<br />I'm going to see what people say about the book and decide whether to read the next one.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09932830885813917282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2330020043629144522.post-88318730662298265632016-02-07T19:53:28.406+00:002016-02-07T19:53:28.406+00:00Was lovely to meet you yesterday Anne, so glad you...Was lovely to meet you yesterday Anne, so glad you came. And we never even got round to talking golf!! Sewing is much more fun!! I can see why you brought such a big holdall with you, so many purchases!! You might need the spoolettes to come up north and help with the wedding sewing if you're pushed for time, you've a lot on!! <br />That book looks a good read. I'm going to download it and watch out for the other recommendations from Colette - I'd missed that! Happy sewing & looking forward to see what you make first! :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2330020043629144522.post-14967969281311100872016-02-07T16:34:54.597+00:002016-02-07T16:34:54.597+00:00Thank you, Corrine.

I'm just deciding what to read next - there were a few other books suggested on the same site, same type of 'sewing mysteries' and some more serious tomes about the ethics of fabric and garment buying - but I've got a new Sherlock Holmes to read (new author).

Don't know exactly what kind of stretch lining your after but Minerva, calico Laine have some suitable for jersey dresses and the like and you can find it on eBay if you search.

Karen's dress is stunning, and it has all the stylish details you were looking for in your MOB dress.
